Apparently this A- list mostly movie actress is really trying to do the publicity thing like she has never done before. She didn't even care about her ex bailing on his commitment because she got the publicity from it on the front end. I was hoping she had done it for noble reasons, but now, it doesn't appear so.

Maybe she's all in on the PR push because she is the face of the movie and wants to promote it so it will do well. IMO, she hasn't exactly been in lots of box office blockbusters. I don't know about you, but when her name is mentioned, the words big-time Hollywood mega star don't exactly come streaming into my mind. Seems she's known more for the drama with Ben, so given her personal life situation maybe she just wants to do all she can to have a big movie that will lead to other big chances.

She's been trying to get him clean for years so stack that pr b.s and give us real blinds ...they have children of course she needs him clean for her girls this blond is petty and far reaching perhaps you couldn't find someone to pin a suicide on this week?

Did you watch the video where she was outside of his home?.... if he’s an adult and nobody can force him to do anything, why make a skeptical of his situation? It’s very selfish. You either really care or you don’t, period

How exactly is she being blamed for issues he had before they even met? The blind says the only reason she’s looking like a saint in the press or doing things publicly is for her own selfish gain... thats wrong, period.

I think this is complicated. Sure she cares and hopes he gets it together for the kids and with what he put her through there has to be a part of her that feels she should 'get something' out of the humiliations, infidelities, etc. Why not? Maybe it is getting something out of a situation. I don't blame her.

PS, and I think it means Ben again bailed on rehab but she landed the story of driving him TO rehab which is the front end story, right? Lots of blinds listed his not living there and going home every night, entitled behavior etc.

You ever write a comment and then before you post it realize you really don't care?Ben is a scumbag trying to manipulate her into letting him come back yet again. Hopefully she is playing this. I hope she called the paps to get that photo of her driving him beery eyed and skeeved out so they were waiting at the Jack in the box to get photos of him getting his greasy burgers and fries. Might help in the divorce PR, because it won't save her horrible movie.She isn't perfect, but good luck to her, and hopefully she escapes his games.

I think if you weigh up the publicity Ben has gotten over the past two weeks against publicity Jen has gotten, Ben has won hands down. His messin around attracts far more web hits. In fact he pretty much put her Walk of Fame day and Peppermint promo push in shade. If I was a suspicious gal I'd bet Ben was pissing his pants with the fun he's had with all these women fighting over him.

If she is doing it for publicity I cannot blame her at all. Go Jen but I think it is more complicated than that. She has been noble in trying to keep her family together and then when that failed, trying to keep her children's father alive. She is a MF saint in my eyes because of all she has done and likely will continue to do.

I think there's every chance that she is actually trying to help the father for children for her children. If he fails, or doesn't follow through with his commitment, then what is she supposed to do. Force him? No. If any of you are a parent, you think about and want links you would go to to help your Children's role models become better for their sake. I would do anything I could.

Peppermint 12% on rotten tomatoes. Ouch!How long until that is blamed on misogyny and too many male reviewers?Some gems from the reviews:

There was a time when a woman being the star of her own bad action franchise could have been considered the apex of progress, but that time is past.

That's right, the race for Worst Picture of the Year looks like a lock.Can you feel it? It's spreading like wildfire. I'm talking about the buzz for Jennifer Garner's latest. Unfortunately for the actress, it's Razzie Awards buzz. Garner is saddled with the half-baked role of suburban mom Riley North. In an early scene, she and her young daughter are hassled outside a mall by a pushy scout leader named Peg who tells them they're not good enough to join. "Why didn't you punch her in the face?" the child inquires. "Because you can't go around punching people in the face," her mother replies. Wouldn't it have been great if the tot turned to the camera and said with a smile, "Spoiler alert!"

Ah yes great, another film about a "revenge spree". It's rated R. She kills at least 30 people in it.Sure, the money was good. But she has money. She could make another Neutrogena commercial. Get another endorsement. Do another talk show interview. It's not hard for her. Go and model for some designer. Some women have to do ugly stuff like this film. She doesn't. So, she wanted to. That's pretty strange.

I think Jen’s a better actress than many here are giving her credit for, if indeed she was faking it for PR. I saw the video of her in front of his house and in the car. She was so visibly upset that she was shaking. This is a woman who cares deeply about her children, and who was committed to helping the father of those children. That being said, this was Ben’s last chance. Divorce papers are supposed to be signed after rehab. I predict she’ll get full custody and he’ll get supervised visitation. Enough is enough. The nanny, the drinking, the gambling, Shookus, and now Shauna or whatever her name is. This can also explain the Blind from the other day about an actor saying that he was going to commit suicide in front of his children. IMO, he knows she’s done.

RT 'Audience Score' is 83%, and IMDb Score is 67%. It ended the week second to The Nun and hit all studio targets.

It's an action movie that is filled with guns and killing and the baddies are stereotypical Latino tattooed cartels. Critics hate it for its non PC setting. Moviegoers love it for its escapism and visceral thrills. They are united in their praise of Garners acting and say the character of Riley North is a credible female version of any other male action movie character out there. Love her or hate her, she earned her money and her leathers on this one.

And when she got home Casey called her and begged her to get Ben in rehab because he wouldnt listennto anyone else. If I'd been her I guarantee my ex and his little addictions would have felt the wrath of Riley.

booking for talk shows are done way, way in advance because her movie has been wrapped and scheduled to come out for over a year. How was Garner to know Ben would go on a crazy bender around the same time her movie was slated to be released? Does she read palms as well? Give the girl a freakin' break.

Jen makes lemonade from the sh*tload of lemons Ben throws her way. She has children to raise and a career to keep afloat in a judgmental, disfunctional industry. More power to her. This blind feels petty.

There is nothing more soul sucking than dealing with an addict who you care about, who will not stay sober. Been there. The fear is all consuming, day after day. I'm sure she has much better things to do with her time and dreams of being free of this burden. I think her angle is....if this ends badly, her children know she did everything she could.
